List #27: Happy Birthday, Ngaio Marsh*

Ngaio Marsh is unimpressed by you

Who: I know Ngaio Marsh for her well-written mystery novels, which put her directly alongside Agatha Christie and Dorothy Sayers during the Golden Age of Detective Fiction. But! She was also an acclaimed theater director. Lots of modern-dress Shakespeare, that sort of thing. 

You can't see her plays, but you can read her books.



Colour Scheme (Rec. #190)



Death and the Dancing Footman (Rec. #37)



Death of a Peer (FSoM #1)



Night at the Vulcan (Rec. #102)



Tied Up in Tinsel (FSoM #17)


. . . and more than 20 others.


*h/t to Potato, who alerted me to the occasion
